Almond Aioli

By stancec44

Blanched almonds go into a blender with water and oil and come out as a luscious aioli. Because the nuts aren't toasted, the sauce doesn't actually taste very nutty. It's more decadent than yogurt, more subtle than mayo.

Do Ahead: Aioli can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill. Thin with water if needed.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup slivered almonds
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt
